Both good explanations--thank you! I clicked around on manufacturer's website, and they actually offer a few explanations: "Why wired? No batteries or charging to manage, reduced lag times while playing, and nearly half the cost of wireless! Plus, our cables detach for storage/display or if someone happens to trip." The tripping part seems a bit far-fetched; the Switch is really light, so I feel like it'd still go flying if someone tripped on the cord.

These controllers seem to be getting a lot of hate, but I may buy one as a spare for when I have friends over. The price is good, they look unique, and I'd rather not shell out $60+ for a nice controller if it won't get used often.

I'm sure this question has an obvious answer, but could anyone tell me why the cord is removable? It doesn't have wireless capabilities, right?

I feel like this is probably the result of a non-gamer making a gaming-related product 😅

I love Kanto as much as the next 90s kid, but there are already so many Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander plushies available. But it’s good to see some more obscure Pokémon represented here—I may cave and get a Corsola!

@Alikan thanks, good to know! I’ll definitely have to try it out

I got my Switch about a month ago, and I discover a highly-praised game I’ve never heard of each time I come to this site—if only my time and money were infinite 😆

It's interesting that all of the Pokémon in this trailer were first seen in Kanto/Johto, with the exception of Zeraora at the very end. Makes me wonder if Fura City is in/near the Johto region?

@Kalmaro Or he got a glimpse under a Mimikyu's disguise. Gen 7 confirmed for GO?

With all the dancing that's shown in the video, I'll be extremely disappointed if Mirror B doesn't make a cameo with a Ludicolo or two.

@Serebii The website does mention that pokémon who are spawned through the use of lures/incense will not appear on their map, so perhaps that explains the inconsistencies?

I've seen a lot of businesses use this strategy around town . My own boss applied to make our store a pokéstop (which I was ecstatic about).

The ghost looks like the result of a Pikachu getting dropped off at the Day Care with a Shuppet.

It could be a new 7th gen Pokémon. That would be cool way to reveal it.

Robotnik makes much more sense because he's always creating different villain robots. I always assumed Sonic and his friends came up with Eggman as a way of making fun of him.

Such a great game. I hope future 3d Mario games go back to having large overworlds to explore like 64 and Sunshine. Linear approaches are fine for 2d platformers, but I like feeling like I'm actually in the Mario universe.

This article sums up what I've thought for years. Gen 4 is when I got really into the competitive battling scene, and that carried on into gen 5. However, I quickly realized I didn't feel fully engaged in the Unova region because I was so focused on stats for competitive battling. I made it a goal to not do that in X/Y, which is apparent because I always use a Dedenne in my Kalos adventures.

I can't believe I wasted my time watching that. They literally just spewed off a bunch of fun facts that were mostly common knowledge. And the jokes were mostly cringeworthy.

@Dakt I've thought the same for ages. 😅

"It all comes together in an all new adventure." Hopefully that means this will be a multi-region game!

The world looks great, but I can't see myself feeling any type of attachment to that main character. It just seems a little generic, but I'll probably give the game a try.

I never did get around to playing the sequels. I don't hate gen V, but very few of the pokémon designs appeal to me. I'll have to pick up a copy of Black 2 or White 2.

I like Sceptile, but I wish two of the three starters in the game weren't third gen pokémon. It just feels unbalanced to me.

Jiggs is my main in Smash, so I'd be thrilled!

This is probably irrelevant, but your Yoshi's Woolly World link is broken in the article.

I'm still waiting for my Target to get more Jigglypuff amiibo. 😞

I actually really like the use of the GamePad to allow both players to have the better viewpoint of the game. I always hated controlling my player when the camera wasn't behind me.

My avatar is okay with this.

When my brother and I would battle in the Block Fort stage, we had a rule that all green shells had to be fired off the forts and onto the lower ground. It made it an instant balloon loss if you fell off a fort!

I wonder if the amiibo will unlock new fighters. Fingers crossed for a Jigglypuff fighter (if Target will ever restock them).

@shani To be fair, it'd be difficult to play well and keep a talk show going at the same time. However, I've always felt like the dynamic (or lack thereof) was always awkward between the two hosts.

One of my favorite things about the first Luigi's Masion was how most of the bosses were a family of ghosts. I wish they'd bring that back to the series.

@Shadowluigi2 I don't think its size matters. It could be the "cute" legendary of gen 7 (like Mew, Celebi, Jirachi, etc.).

I'll just beat Paper Mario 64 and watch an endless loop of fireworks. 🎆🎆

My beloved Shuckle probably won't get any love. :/

I actually bought this game a few weeks ago for a little over $10. I'd say it's worth that, just for the uniqueness. But you're right; it's a pretty broken game.

I wonder how many people bought one, brought it home, and then realized there wasn't any wi-fi. I bet they were MAD.

It looks like Delcatty and Milotic had a baby.

I'm wondering if the new region will be based off of France. In the Nintendo Direct video, Pikachu was on top of the Eiffel Tower, and there is a structure that looks similar to the Eiffel Tower in the gameplay footage.
